Linus Torvalds 58ff3b7604 The EFI changes for this cycle are:
- preliminary changes for RISC-V
  - Add support for setting the resolution on the EFI framebuffer
  - Simplify kernel image loading for arm64
  - Move .bss into .data via the linker script instead of relying on symbol
    annotations.
  - Get rid of __pure getters to access global variables
  - Clean up the config table matching arrays
  - Rename pr_efi/pr_efi_err to efi_info/efi_err, and use them consistently
  - Simplify and unify initrd loading
  - Parse the builtin command line on x86 (if provided)
  - Implement printk() support, including support for wide character strings
  - Simplify GDT handling in early mixed mode thunking code
  - Some other minor fixes and cleanups
